That's really good. A comment on the videography..... it's one of the few videos I've seen that seem to do a good job of representing the size of the seas involved. I was wondering if it is a result of the high aspect of the cameraman. He seems to be shooting a lot from the top of the cabin, like he was standing next to the mast.

Just a thought for discussion amongst our budding cinematographers......

50 deg south.... further south than the roaring forties.
The screaming sixties are futher south still.
Spare me.
I would get shipwrecked in my old boat.
